TWC was just saying it's not going to be a direct hit. But, they do expect effects. Hunker down.
It is supposed to turn somewhat Northward over the next 24 hours or so, and if so, it'll come pretty damn close to a direct hit. Hurricane Iniki in 1992 did just that...was way south of the islands, heading west, and made a near 90-degree turn to the North and blasted the shit out of us.

Dunno how many folks have experienced a hurricane... but when you're being pounded by 100 mph winds and it goes on for like 30 straight hours.. you get frazzled.. you start staring at the windows knowing there is no way they can hold out... you know the roof is going to go... and shortly after it's over, the sun is screaming and the sky is perfectly blue and cloudless... then you look around and it appears that the Russians just carpet bombed your town

Thankfully I haven't had to deal with a full on hurricane down here yet. Had a few tropical storms get close enough to do some damage in the area, but I'm not looking forward to eventually having to deal with a full-blown hurricane event.
